NB: The full-day teacher institute is an essential feature of the program and your participation requires that teachers be available to attend. The Institute for Response to Literature will be held on November 29th at Teaching Matters. The Institute for Voices and Choices will be held on either January 9th or 10th.
Costs associated with hiring substitute teachers will be absorbed by the school.
Principal Sign-off
If my school is accepted into the program, I will arrange for teachers to attend the full-day professional development institute that precedes implementation and will cover the costs involved. I understand that the onsite professional development that teachers are provided will be at no cost to the school.
